Example Question #174 : How To Find The Part From The Whole
What is rounded to the nearest ten?
When we round a number to the tens place we look to our ones place to tell us if we round up or down. If the number in our ones place is or greater, we round up. If the number in the ones place is
or less, we round down. When we round up, the number in the tens place increases by
. The numbers to the right of the tens place become
and the numbers to the left of the tens place stay the same. When we round down, the number in the tens place stays the same. The numbers to the right of the tens place become
and the numbers to the left of the tens place stay the same.
In this case, is less than
so our rounded number is

Example Question #179 : How To Find The Part From The Whole
Halley has green gummy bears. She decides to give them away to her
siblings. How many gummy bears will each sibling get if they each get the same number?
gummy bears will need to be divided into
equal parts. If you take
away from
and give
to each sibling, Halley has
gummy bears leftover. Even though the siblings have an equal amount (
gummy bear each), the total number (
) hasn't been completely divided.
If you were to repeat this process, taking from the total and distributing
to each sibling until the total as
, each sibling would have a total of
gummy bears.
